Description:

It was not until the bel canto operas of the 19th century, when the castrato, which had dominated the stage until then, disappeared, that the tenor really became the main actor in opera. The beautiful and well-developed voice of the tenor adds a glamorous touch to the stage, whether in a heroic role against a villain played by a baritone or in a romantic relationship with a heroine played by a soprano. This album includes typical roles for tenors. The high C in Donizetti's "Daughter of the Regiment," for example, will captivate the listener's ear. The album also includes the well-known "Nobody Shall Sleep". Naxos Japan
